 The [Jellyfin webOS app](https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-webos) is a lightweight wrapper around Jellyfin's web interface. It implements a `NativeShell` bridge that reports the TV's codec capabilities back to the Jellyfin server. When the server sees that the client supports HEVC, Dolby Vision, and DD+ natively, it skips transcoding entirely and sends the raw file.
 
-Under the hood, the app uses the TV's HTML5 video element for playback. The webOS platform routes the video bitstream to the TV's hardware decoder --- the same silicon that decodes Netflix and Disney+. The result is bit-perfect playback with full HDR metadata, exactly as the content was mastered.

-LG has shipped webOS on every smart TV since 2014.

 The developer story improved over time. LG's [Developer Mode app](https://webostv.developer.lge.com/develop/getting-started/developer-mode-app) lets you sideload `.ipk` packages onto your TV after registering a free LG developer account. The session lasts 1,000 hours before needing renewal. The [webOS Homebrew Project](https://www.webosbrew.org/) community has pushed this further with persistent sideloading and a homebrew app store via the [Homebrew Channel](https://github.com/webosbrew/webos-homebrew-channel).
 
-Jellyfin first landed in the LG Content Store in [July 2022](https://jellyfin.org/posts/webos-july2022/), initially for webOS 6+ (2021 TVs and newer). Older TVs required sideloading through Developer Mode. Since then, LG has approved the app for the Content Store on all webOS versions back to 1.2, meaning it's now a one-click install on LG TVs as far back as **2014**. That's unusual reach for an open-source, community-built app running on a consumer TV platform --- and it works because webOS has always been a web-first OS under the hood. The same HTML5/CSS/JavaScript stack that powers Netflix and YouTube on these TVs powers Jellyfin.

 ### Why this matters: the macOS HDR problem
 
 If you've ever tried to play a 4K Dolby Vision file in VLC on a Mac, you've probably seen the infamous purple-and-green tint. VLC can tone-map HDR10 to SDR for display, but it cannot interpret Dolby Vision metadata --- the proprietary enhancement layer that Dolby licenses to hardware vendors. Without the Dolby license, the player falls back to a broken color mapping that produces psychedelic garbage.
 
 There's no software fix. Dolby Vision is a closed ecosystem: you need licensed silicon to decode it. Apple's own apps (Apple TV, Safari) handle it because Apple pays Dolby, but third-party players like VLC and mpv are out of luck.
 
-With the LG + Jellyfin setup, this is a non-issue. The TV has the Dolby hardware. Jellyfin just serves the file. You get perfect 4K Dolby Vision playback from a $192 server.
+With the LG + Jellyfin setup, this doesn't come up. The TV has the Dolby hardware; Jellyfin just serves the file.
